This raises the importance of understanding why some mental health professionals show greater resilience when faced with common work stressors than others. One work stressor that has been consistently linked with stress is workload. Research has found that higher workload generally leads to greater work-life conflict, which, in turn, leads to greater stress. The current study aimed to test this mediation model amongst mental health professionals and examined how individuals' preference for segmentation versus integration of work and private life moderates the strength of the pathways in this mediation model. Research participants, consisting of 152 Australian mental health professionals aged 18-69 years (M = 37.58, SD = 12.12), voluntarily completed a 30-min survey capturing workload, work-life conflict, segmentation preference, and stress. In line with expectations, higher workload predicted greater stress via higher levels of work-life conflict. Furthermore, segmentation preference moderated the path between workload and work-life conflict as well as the path between work-life conflict and stress. Simple slopes analyses showed that a stronger (vs. weaker) preference for segmentation was associated with a stronger positive relationship between workload and work-life conflict as well as a stronger positive relationship between work-life conflict and stress. Segmentation preference may thus influence the workload-work-life conflict-stress relationship through two distinct mechanisms. Improving our understanding of such mechanisms facilitates creation of targeted strategies to reduce work-induced stress amongst mental health professionals.</p>","PeriodicalId":51175,"journal":{"name":"Stress and Health","volume":"41 4","pages":"e70095"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12309875/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144755083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concept of thriving, defined as the joint experience of development and success, shares some similarities with other psychological concepts (e.g., resilience, posttraumatic growth, flourishing), but is distinct due to the consideration of physical wellbeing, and success (e.g., performance). It is posited that thriving offers a more holistic approach to understanding human functioning and is flexible enough to be applied to a variety of populations. We aimed to synthesis the existing literature on human thriving in high stress and recurring trauma occupations, and report factors that enable individuals to thrive. Database searches were conducted in CINAHL, Embase, Medline, and PsycINFO. The review adhered to recommended guidelines including the PRISMA extension for scoping reviews. Eight hundred and thirty-two original sources were identified and underwent title and abstract review, with 149 retained for full text review and 28 retained for data extraction. Whilst no articles were found that utilised 'thriving' as the central concept of investigation in relevant occupational settings (i.e., high stress, recurring trauma), the final sample retained 28 articles that focused on one or more components of thriving (26 quantitative, one mixed method and one qualitative study). Occupations included police officers, paramedics, firefighters, and military personnel. Personal factors identified that align with the thriving framework included resilience, posttraumatic growth and subjective wellbeing. Coping styles also appeared to be related to an individual's ability to thrive with findings suggesting that an active coping style is linked to greater wellbeing, and that an avoidant coping may be helpful during a stressful event. Contextual factors identified included social support from colleagues and supervisors, shared humour, and positive human connection. For individuals in occupations where they are regularly exposed to recurring trauma and stress, and the corresponding negative impacts, finding ways to facilitate thriving may have significant social, psychological, and organisational benefits. Understanding how individuals thrive and positively adapt to disruptions may inform workplace education and interventions and assist in supporting these vital workforces.</p>","PeriodicalId":51175,"journal":{"name":"Stress and Health","volume":"41 4","pages":"e70084"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12287625/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144700312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Study 2, a quasi-experimental design with 85 participants in an intervention group and 66 in a control group demonstrated that a growth mindset intervention effectively enhanced dual growth mindsets, leading to improved well-being, including job satisfaction and individual flourishing.

The results showed that COVID-19 stress significantly increased ego depletion, thereby negatively affecting job performance. Importantly, a significant three-way interaction revealed that the buffering effect of P-M flexibility against stress-induced ego depletion was more pronounced among office-based employees. Specifically, in structured office contexts characterised by high external regulatory demands, employees with high P-M flexibility experienced lower ego depletion and maintained better job performance despite elevated stress. Conversely, remote work autonomy partially substituted the need for internal adaptability yet posed challenges for those with low P-M flexibility.
